This is a discography of sound and video recordings of Carmen, a French-language opera by Georges Bizet. The opera premiered at the Opéra-Comique in Paris on 3 March 1875. Carmen has been one of the most frequently recorded operas, dating back to a near-complete German acoustical recording in 1908. The list indicates where possible which recordings are performed with spoken dialogue as originally intended or with recitatives added by other composers.
